For over a century, The Davey Company has embraced the connection between
our clients, employees and our passion around caring for trees and landscapes.
Today, we view the balance of corporate health and environmental stewardship
as a business imperative. It is our mission to ensure that today's business
practices are not a detriment to tomorrow's landscape.
Strength Through Responsibility represents our commitment to incorporate
environmentally responsible initiatives into our corporate strategic plan objectives.
The successes we achieve in the areas of smart growth, excellent client
experience, employee strength, financial sustainability and differentiating
our brand can be accomplished in conjunction with the correct focus on
environmental responsibility. We believe that existing initiatives and greater
engagement by our clients and employees will also result from the work
we do as corporate environmental stewards. Our history, our culture and our
clients urge us to advance a strategic plan that includes the many benefits
derived from environmental awareness.
We are proud of our past success and mindful of the effort and contributions
of our most valued asset: our employees. Davey embodies a passionate
workforce that provides innovative solutions for our clients through responsible,
science-based actions, advanced technical research and sustainable business
practices. This is our commitment and it distinguishes us from our competition.
We have a clear vision of our goals and the integral role environmental
responsibility has throughout Davey's business segments. Looking forward,
our Proven Solutions approach will continue to integrate sustainability and
operational success. It is my pleasure to share this vision with you and to
report our CER performance and aspirations.
